Join us for Ingenuity’s Tapestry event on Wednesday, May 14th at the stunning Four Seasons Chicago from 6pm-9pm!

We’re thrilled to honor The Chicago Public Education Fund and celebrate our Equity in Arts Education Awardee, Guitars Over Guns.

Both of these incredible organizations are aligned with Ingenuity’s mission to transform and elevate education in Chicago’s public schools. The Chicago Public Education Fund works to empower principals, teachers, and district leaders to drive lasting change and improve student outcomes. Meanwhile, Guitars Over Guns is using the power of music, mentorship, and community to provide life-changing opportunities for young people across our city.

This is a night you don’t want to miss—celebrating the future of arts education in our city and the incredible work happening to uplift our students.
